Ask Ubuntu Asked by SpaceGamer on December 8, 2021
I currently have a Let’s Play Channel on Youtube, so, I need to record gameplay footage (video and audio) along with microphone audio (in a separate file, with audacity).
I found a software called Simple Screen Recorder (SSR) to record gameplay video and audio footage, I have checked the website for instructions on how to adjust the things and the problems began.
First, the video is recorded just fine, it’s the simplest software I could find to set up the configurations and get it up and running. Problem is, no gameplay audio, no system audio. Audacity records the microphone just well, so I started to take a look on the configurations on PulseAudio Volume Control while recording something with SSR. Many tutorials tell to change the audio imput to Monitor of Built-in Analog Audio in order to record the gameplay audio, but this did not work to me here.
I suspect that this Monitor of Built-in Analog Audio is not configured or that it does not have audio to be recorded at all, how can I fix this?
It is also possible to do this through the command line. This uses the pactl
command like CMCDragonkai requested.
pactl set-source-mute alsa_output
false
at the end and press enterOn my machine, the command would be pactl set-source-mute alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereo.monitor false
. You might also need to adjust the volume like pactl set-source-volume alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereo.monitor 100%

My experience was with Audacity, had worked easily enough in previous Ubuntu versions. I'm now using 10.14 LTS. I installed the pavucontrol, and soon got it working. Not without fiddling with a few things. See below
Make sure you go to Configuration in the pavucontrol tool. I had to select "Analog stereo ouput". Then go to Audacity and choose Pulse Pulse Video:0, in the main panel of Audacity. Then I was able to record. Thanks for this post!

I don't know how far you got in this process, so I start from the beginning:
Install pavucontrol:
sudo apt-get install pavucontrol
Launch it:
pavucontrol
On the Input Devices tab select Show: All input devices
Check the Volume level and if necessary Unmute the Monitor of Built-in Analog Audio channel by clicking on the little speaker icon.
Launch Audacity, start recording
While Audacity is recording: In the pavucontrol Recording tab change the Input Source for Audacity to Monitor of Built-in Analog Audio
